Plain sweaters are safe, and safe is exactly why half of them never get worn!

Just imagine a soft blue knit with a ring of small folk flowers across the shoulders — the sort of thing that looks like it came from a little shop somewhere rather than off a rack. Now stop imagining, because that is the Pamela.

• A Flower-Worked Yoke
  Small blue, gold and russet flowers sit in a band across the shoulders on a cream ground, framed in soft green. It lifts the eye toward your face and does all the decorating an outfit needs.
• A Denim-Friendly Blue
  The body is a soft, slightly heathered blue that sits beautifully next to actual denim rather than fighting it. Jeans and this sweater is the whole outfit.
• A Matching Band At The Hem
  The same pattern repeats in a stripe just above the hem and at the cuffs, which makes the piece look finished rather than decorated only at the top.
• Easy Through The Body
  A round neck, full sleeves and a relaxed body mean it goes on over a tee without a fight, and it sits at the hip — a length that flatters almost every shape.
• Sizes S Through 2XL
  The same generous, comfortable cut across the range, with ribbing at the neck, cuffs and hem to hold the shape.

If the plain sweaters in your drawer have stopped earning their space, this is the antidote — interesting enough that people ask about it, simple enough to wear on an ordinary Wednesday. That combination is what turns a sweater into the one you reach for first.
